Extent about 200 items in 1 box (0.42 linear feet) Accession Info MS.2013.5; Gift of Linda Apicelli, accepted January 2013. Historical Note Vernon Court Junior College in operation from September 1963 to January 1972. It occupied the mansions Vernon Court, Fairlawn, and Stoneacre, as well as other mansions in the Ruggles Avenue area. It was associated with The Hatch Preparatory School for Boys, which had occupied Vernon Court since 1956. In January 1972 the College faced financial difficulties that forced it to close. At the time of closure the school had 157 enrolled students and 80 employees. All three school buildings were eventually sold, including Stoneacre Field, a 3.75 acre plot, for $61,000 to local plumbing contractor, D. Dixon Donovan. Stoneacre, the former W. Goadby Loew villa, had been demolished to make room for new dormitories, which were never built. Donovan bought other former Vernon Court properties along Ruggles Avenue as well. When the Vernon Court mansion was sold, the property was put back on the tax rolls. Fairlawn is now The Pell Center of Salve Regina University.

  • The Burial of the Urban Poor in Italy in the Late Republic and Early Empire
    Death, disposal and the destitute: The burial of the urban poor in Italy in the late Republic and early Empire Emma-Jayne Graham Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Archaeology University of Sheffield December 2004 IMAGING SERVICES NORTH Boston Spa, Wetherby West Yorkshire, LS23 7BQ www.bl.uk The following have been excluded from this digital copy at the request of the university: Fig 12 on page 24 Fig 16 on page 61 Fig 24 on page 162 Fig 25 on page 163 Fig 26 on page 164 Fig 28 on page 168 Fig 30on page 170 Fig 31 on page 173 Abstract Recent studies of Roman funerary practices have demonstrated that these activities were a vital component of urban social and religious processes. These investigations have, however, largely privileged the importance of these activities to the upper levels of society. Attempts to examine the responses of the lower classes to death, and its consequent demands for disposal and commemoration, have focused on the activities of freedmen and slaves anxious to establish or maintain their social position. The free poor, living on the edge of subsistence, are often disregarded and believed to have been unceremoniously discarded within anonymous mass graves (puticuli) such as those discovered at Rome by Lanciani in the late nineteenth century. This thesis re-examines the archaeological and historical evidence for the funerary practices of the urban poor in Italy within their appropriate social, legal and religious context. The thesis attempts to demonstrate that the desire for commemoration and the need to provide legitimate burial were strong at all social levels and linked to several factors common to all social strata.

  • Thesis for the Degree Of
    Reconfiguring the Universe: The Contest for Time and Space in the Roman Imperial Cults and 1 Peter Submitted by Wei Hsien Wan to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology and Religion February 2016 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ……………………………………………………………………………… Abstract Evaluations of the stance of 1 Peter toward the Roman Empire have for the most part concluded that its author adopted a submissive or conformist posture toward imperial authority and influence. Recently, however, David Horrell and Travis Williams have argued that the letter engages in a subtle, calculated (“polite”) form of resistance to Rome that has often gone undetected. Nevertheless, discussion of the matter has remained largely focused on the letter’s stance toward specific Roman institutions, such as the emperor, household structures, and the imperial cults. Taking the conversation beyond these confines, the present work examines 1 Peter’s critique of the Empire from a wider angle, looking instead to the letter’s ideology or worldview. Using James Scott’s work to think about ideological resistance against domination, I consider how the imperial cults of Anatolia and 1 Peter offered distinct constructions of time and space—that is, how they envisioned reality differently.

  • Strategy Transformation and Change: Changing
    Graduate School of Business Title STRATEGY TRANSFORMATION AND CHANGE: CHANGING PARADIGMS IN AUSTRALIAN CATHOLIC HEALTH AND AGED CARE John Joseph Ryan This thesis is presented as part of the requirements for the award of the Degree of Doctor of Business Administration of the Curtin University of Technology August, 2001 VOLUME 0NE Declaration This thesis is my own work. No part has been submitted for a degree at this or any other university. 2 Acknowledgements Firstly, to my family, thank you for your help and patience. A message to my wife, who put up with a great deal and who typed all of the transcripts: Parkes, my darling, it can only get better from now on! A list of acknowledgements always runs the risk of omitting people whose help and influence have been crucial, or the risk of being boringly long. Unlike the thesis itself, these acknowledgements will risk omissions in the interest of being short. My apologies to those people unfairly omitted. Ivor Davies, of St. John of God Health Care, gave me the idea to research Integration 2000. Francis Sullivan and his staff at Catholic Health Australia made the project possible, invited me to two National Conferences, guided me in setting up the sample and made themselves and their records available on several trips to Canberra. Bruce Callaghan, the consultant who helped the peak body to initiate the process, made his office files available, in his absence, and participated with Francis Sullivan in giving me a preliminary briefing at Sydney Airport. All of the respondents to this research gave freely of their insights and their time, often at considerable personal inconvenience.
